The effect of elasticity on the peristaltic flow of a micropolar fluid containing nanoparticles in a cylindrical tube is investigated using amathematical model. The expressions for velocity and flux flow rate are determined by using Homotopy Perturbation method, underlong wave length and low Reynold’s number approximations. The variation of flux is calculated by Rubinow and Keller, Muzumdarmethods. Different parameters' effects on velocity and flow have been discussed. For various settings, the trapping phenomenon isdemonstrated. The flux increases as the elasticity parameters, micropolar parameter, thermophoresis parameter, and coupling numberincrease. The flux similarly reduces as the Brownian motion parameter is increased. The obtained results are same when we applyRubinow and Keller, Muzumdar methods.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
